Speaking on the condition of anonymity, she said the ordeal unfolded around 6:40 a.m. Monday at her home on Westwood Drive.

"(Agents) kicked my door in and had the guns out on me and asked me who was in the house and told me to come outside and put handcuffs on me."

She said agents searched her attic, ransacked her home and drew guns on her 10-year-old son who was asleep upstairs in his bed.

She said agents accused her of harboring a fugitive, Keana Barnes, who on Jan. 1 escaped from the Louisiana Correctional Institute for Women in St. Gabriel. She was serving a 25-year sentence for manslaughter. Barnes is considered armed and dangerous.

"When I told them that I did not know anything about this girl, they told me I was a (liar) and they were not going to leave until I told them the truth. The mistaken identity is my sister."

Her sister, Nakia Hampton, 38, is the woman in question. She visited her this weekend from Atlanta. She said that’s who agents mistook for Barnes.

The U.S. Marshall’s Office said it is working with the Louisiana Department of Corrections on the case of Keana Barnes. It’s assisting in the investigation and that agents were in that area Monday morning.

The reward for information leading to Barnes’ capture is up to $5,000.
